Tweetable Quotes:

  • “Talking about the total cost of risk and doing mod analysis, and claims analysis, and other things just bring so much value to the client. That’s been the coolest thing of this whole thing is that I feel like we’ve transformed in the service we provide, because we’re doing so much for the client than maybe we were before.” – Doug Benz
  • “There is so much that can be done and there’s so much technology now that we’re all using, we can kind of share and bring that value to our clients. So, there’s never been a better time to really help people out and offer that value-add.” – Doug Benz
  • “We’re succeeding. We’re growing our business and we’re doing really well. But, it’s not just a trick to sell more. It’s a value-add that you’re bringing to the client in a way that very few other people are doing, and it’s what the client deserves.” – Doug Benz
